The Spectrum of Sexuality lyrics
by Martin Short
[Intro]
The modern world's a sexual cornucopia
We take comfort knowing if we're this or that
No longer simply straight or gay
There's a mind-boggling array
And we all are searching for a home to hang our boner's hat
[Verse 1]
Let's begin with the simple androsexual
That's an any-gendered person who f*cks men
But if there's a part-time di*kin' and also ladies you'll be sticking
Then you could be bi or cisgen-MSM
Now should you require romance to get you into no pants
Then a demisexual is what you'd be
And the omnisexual or pan will bed all genders, understand?
While polysexuals don't f*ck all just two or three
Yes, siree on the spectrum of sexuality
[Interlude]
So, you're telling me there's a category for everybody?
I don't believe it
Oh, yeah? Try me
[Verse 2]
I sashayed like a nancy boy to make the ladies shriek
A gender-normative gynophile with a homophobic streak
I was a femme androgenoid from a distant outer space
A polysexual gender non-conformist textbook case
I died from drugs and heartbreak forced to hide my same-sex love
I f*cked ladies who f*cked ladies who f*cked me
Hm, a classic closeted bisexual and a philandering cisgen male
There's a name for anything
You care to be, don't you see?
On the spectrum of sexuality
[Bridge]
Some prefer to be alone when they get naughty
They're only turned on by the sight of their own body
[Verse 3]
Well, it's logical as it's lexical they're simply autosexual
Like, oh, so many more from sea to sea
Whatever horny predilection
Makes you wet or prompts erection
It's all there, on the spectrum of sexuality
